Articulation/Phonology:
Speech sound disorders in children include problems with articulation (i.e. making specific sounds), and phonological processes (patterned errors of speech sounds: e.g. producing /t/ for /k/ consistently) which impact overall speech intelligibility.
Who May Benefit From Speech Therapy For Articulation/Phonology:
Children who may have patterned errors of speech (e.g. omitting ending sounds on words, consistently producing one speech sound for another, only producing one speech sound in a consonant cluster).
Children who may continue to produce speech errors past the expected age.
Children who have difficulty being understood by family, friends, or teachers.
